And listeners!

I also was in college radio when I attended FHSU. There, I actually *gasp* learned how a radio station works - continuity, programming, news, management, etc.

From what I have seen (heard), there isnt much keeping the station here going. They are not on consistant hours and, while I am sure the equipment has upgraded since I was there (no more radial pots???), it still needs to be used as a learning tool - not only for aspiring Howard Sterns, but also for kids wanting to dip their feet into sports play by play, engineering, etc, before jumping in the deep end.

That's what's happening out here. Give your ear a hear, 'ya hear.

Better yet, come out and take a look. The door's open to everyone AND the big chair is always surrendered to students.
